FARMSTEAD WITH BARN AND 2 APARTMENTS IN TAUNUSSTEIN-NEUHOF FOR SALE VHB

As soon as you enter the property, you reach the spacious, paved inner courtyard. This is completely secluded and so you are undisturbed at all times.
Past the patio, through the new entrance door, you enter apartment 1 with 2 rooms, a kitchen-living room and a large bathroom with shower. The apartment is equipped with a simple and older kitchen that meets normal requirements. The apartment has approx. 58.72 sqm. The staircase leading to apartment 2 was separated a few years ago to ensure privacy for both apartments, but can easily be removed.
Back in the inner courtyard, a staircase leads to the spacious balcony and from there to apartment 2. The flooring of the balcony was renewed in 2024. This apartment has 2 rooms, an eat-in kitchen with a simple fitted kitchen and a daylight bathroom on the 1st floor and a converted attic. This maisonette apartment has approx. 110 sqm.
The house therefore comprises 2 apartments with a total of 167.96 sqm, but can also be used as a detached house.
The house has a partial basement. The year of construction is given as 1910. An extension was built at that time, which enlarged the house and connected it to the outbuilding, a barn. The year of construction of the former farmhouse can only be estimated at around 1880. The house is a half-timbered house that was replastered and repainted around 8 years ago. One half of the gabled roof was re-roofed in 2011, the other half was not.
The windows and heating are from 1992, the electrics are older. Here you should plan ahead and at least calculate the replacement of the electrics. The heating is a condensing boiler from Viessmann. The burner was replaced about 8 years ago, the heating is serviced regularly and the values are within the norm. There is also a stove on the 1st floor, which can be used to heat parts of the 1st floor and the entire top floor.
The courtyard leads to the basement, where the heating system and the 3 oil tanks, each with a capacity of 750 liters, are located. The tanks are already double-walled.
The lower area of the barn comprises 5 rooms. There is therefore plenty of storage space. There is a hay barn in the upper part of the barn, which cannot be driven into, but can be accessed through a gate from the side road. The former pigsty can also be accessed from the side street. The exterior of the barn was painted in 2024. The usable area of the barn is approx. 269 sqm. At the moment the upper part of the barn and the garage are rented for € 960,- per year.
This is a typical old building with low ceilings, old wooden floorboards and exposed beams.
I enjoyed living here for many years and felt very comfortable. In summer I had an open-air living room and in winter I sat in front of the stove with tea in my cozy living room. The reason for selling is the size of the property. We, as 2 people, are losing out on approximately 437 square feet of living and usable space.
The bottom line is that you have a house here with plenty of room for design options. It's perfect for intergenerational living and/or for combining living and working.
If someone asks me what needs to be done in/on the house to be able to move in, I say: paint the inside. Both apartments are habitable and functional. Everything else depends on your own requirements and everyone has to decide for themselves.
Objectively and for the future, you should replace the electrics and think about a new heating system. A hybrid heating system would make sense here, as you have sufficient storage space for fuel.
